exo-alpha-(2->6)-sialidase activity
Definition
Target type: molecularfunction
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of alpha-(2->6)-glycosidic linkages of terminal sialic residues in substrates. [EC:3.2.1.18, GOC:mengo_curators]
Exo-alpha-(1-u003e2)-mannosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.80) is a glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of a mannose residue from a donor molecule, typically GDP-mannose, to the alpha-1 position of a terminal mannose residue on an acceptor oligosaccharide. This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of N-linked glycans, which are complex carbohydrate structures that are attached to proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. The specific function of exo-alpha-(1-u003e2)-mannosyltransferase is to add a mannose residue to the alpha-1 position of the terminal mannose residue on the Man(5)GlcNAc(2) precursor oligosaccharide, which is the initial substrate for N-glycosylation. This addition of a mannose residue is essential for the proper folding and function of many proteins. In addition to its role in N-glycosylation, exo-alpha-(1-u003e2)-mannosyltransferase has also been implicated in the biosynthesis of other complex carbohydrates, such as those found in fungal cell walls. The enzyme is a highly conserved protein, with homologues found in a wide variety of organisms, including bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals. The structure of exo-alpha-(1-u003e2)-mannosyltransferase has been determined by X-ray crystallography, revealing a complex protein with multiple domains that are involved in substrate binding and catalysis.'
